Commercial & Adventure Photographer based in Canada.

I’m a photographer born and raised in the Coast Range of Canada – calling this place home for just shy of 27 years now.

From an early age I was either running, biking or skiing any chance I had. These outdoor pursuits lead me to find a deep love for the mountains as a teenager, which ultimately was the reason for picking up a camera at the age of 13. Photography was a way for me to share my adventures and document the community, sports and places that were so important to me.

It’s developed into something a bit more – but to me, it still feels just the same.

Nowadays, I focus my energy on working with industry leading brands and world-class athletes in some of the most remote and beautiful places on Earth. Truly a dream “job”. My goal is to always use my lens in a participatory position and to create images that would have inspired me as a kid.
